===Synaptopodin 2-like protein / Tritopodin=== | |||
==Introduction== | ==Introduction== | ||
The synaptopodin 2-like protein or '''tritopodin''' is the third member (besides [http://www.proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/Group:MUZIC:Myopodin myopodin] and [http://www.proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/Group:MUZIC:Synaptopodin synaptopodin]) of the podin protein family and is encoded by the gene ''SYNPO2L''[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q9H987]. Tritopodin has been revealed by database searches, and since it is the third member of the podin family of proteins with extended sequence similarity, was named ‘‘tritopodin’’. Tritopodin is also known under the names synaptopodin 2-like, myopodin-like and CHAP (cytoskeletal heart-enriched actin-associated protein) and is found in heart and skeletal muscle tissue <ref> PMID:19151983 </ref>. | |||
